SEPTEMBER 21, 2018, ORANGE COUNTY, CA - Orange County marketing firm, Your Marketing People, offers paid quarterly internships for local high school or college students to gain real-world digital marketing experience. Located in Irvine, California, the internship is an opportunity for students to learn and assist with social media marketing, paid search, SEO, and more. This is a flexible opportunity designed to suit the needs of full-time students, with hours ranging from 5-10 per week, depending on the intern’s schedule.
“Opening up this internship has been incredibly important to me because my whole career started with one. I was selected for an advertising internship straight out of college and feel grateful for the opportunity,” says Co-Founder, Alisha Chocha.
She adds, “Internships give students a chance to get their foot in the door, especially in competitive fields like marketing. They get hands-on experience, work closely with a mentor, and get to learn and explore - there’s just no better way to find out if a career path is truly suited for you! And we’re looking forward to bringing in the next generation of marketers.”
